NATIONAL PROSPERITY.
Rev. John WriGht's Discourse at
St. PauI.S Church.

Rector John Wright diScoursed at the
Thanksgiving services at st. PaufS
church from the words, Deut. viii. 10,
when thou hast eaten and art full,
then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God
for the good land He has given thee"
A large attendance was present, and the
altar was very beautifully decorated
with sheaveS of grain, baskets of fruit
and punches of roses. The rector re-
marked in substance: ''In the hour of
prosperity we should give thanks both
as individuals and as nation. The
prosperity of the nation is a good sub
ject for thanksgiving, and we, being
the most prosperous and the happiest
nation on earth, have the most reason
for thanksgiving. III point of
population great, in extent of ter
ritOry vast. the tide of emigration
to our shores from foreign lands ever
increasing and unprecedented, yet the
American people are not content with
ordinary progress, but are building up
the largest cities and making the might
lest nation of the earth. But beware of
pride in the hour of greatness. JeruSa-
lem tottered and sank beneath revolu
ton when in the height of her pros
perity. Rome fell when i'll the zenith
of her power; Athens also. So it has
ever been in the worlds history. Let
us pray to God that our beloved land
will stand firm through all her great
ness"
AT THE CATHOLIC CHURCHES.
Thanksgiving services were held al

priateness and large attendances and

night to bid farewell to Rev. Mr.. Craig,
who on Monday will leave for New

times seemed deeply affected. He said

He asked his congregation never to
speak against the Irish, he was Irish
himself, and told how they had nobly
fought in Americas wars; how his
father had fought at SebastOpol, and
how his two brothers had rished their
lives for Old England. Now that India
needs his service he also responds to the
call, and though he knew he was to
leave his bones beneath India'S sands,
still he would go. The congregation
was moved to tears.
The new pastor, Rev. j. Z. Smith, re-
marked ''GOd bless him, - feryently, and

GENERALLY OBSERVED.
There was a general suspension of
business throughout the city after noon,
the public buildings, barber shops, and
even the real estate offices, wearing a
deserted appearance after that hour.
Although there was not such demon
stratiOns as occur in the East on the ma
tional holiday. still, the manner in which
the day was celebrated evinced a grow
ing desire TO pattern after the Eastern
custom. Theatrical managers, who
hitherto had not been favOrably i'm
pressed with the outlook for matinee
in st. Paul on holiday. rubbed their
hands gleefully as the shekels poured
into the boX-Offices and their houses
were packed with appreciative audi
enceS.
Dining out was the order of the day,
and many pleasant reunions of old
friends occurred in the mansions on st.
Anthony hill and in other parts of the
city. This caused the lower or business
part of st. Paul to present somewhat
deserted appearance, and even the hotel
Hobbies were for the time being deprived
of their usual busy aspect. Politicians
forgot that they must cOngregate and
discuss the outlook for the next cam
paign, but gave themselves up to a
thorough enjoyment of Thanksgiving

Many Hundred We're Served at
Gospel Temperance Rooms.

If there was a single man who
doubted that the Christian Temperance
Union is power in this city he should
have witnessed the crowds that poured
into their rooms on East Sew
enth street yesterday afternoon
and evening. The reception opened
at 5 O'clock in the afternoon
and continued until 9 p, m. During
this time no less than $50 men. women
and children, of all ages and nationali-
ties, were served bOunteous LUNCHEON
dinner, made up of turkey, coffee and
fruits. The pleasure did not consist
merely in diSpOSing of the dinner, but
recitatiOnS. music, three-minute speeches
and gospel songs were given. Solos were
rendered by Miss Hattie Brush and
Miss MabOn; duets by Mrs. Brinker-
hOff and Miss MabOn and Mrs, Bran
blett and Miss Kennedy. and three
minute speeches by DIR. Robert Forbes,
Revs. Gephart and Bolt and Mrs. F. d.
Farwell. The supplies which were
dealt out with SO liberal hand were all
donated to the society by the prominent
business men of the city, and but one
thing was lacking-that was room to
seat more. Committees from the w. c.
II. L. Y. W. G. I. u. and the different
churches of the city were in attendance.
The whole thing was success in every
sense of the term.

HE HAD A BOMB.
A Deadly Instrument Taken From
Drunken Man.

Yesterday man named A. Carlson,
who claimed to be drummer from a
Chicago house, was arrested near the
Merchants hotel on charge of drunk
enness. In his possession was found a
real bomb. 1t was about five inches in
length and one inch in diameter. made
of ordinary gas pipe and filled with
cannen powder. The fuse, which ran
through a cap in one end, was ingen-
iously fastened to four powder matches.
By pulling the fuse the matches would
be drawn through the powder and in
this way an explosion would be pro-
duced. OF course, no great damage
could be inflicted with such bomb. but
it would certainly blow out the plug
ging of the ends of the pipe, and at least
scare a man pretty badly.
